Music on Main Street of Mt.Airy at the "The Historic Earl Theater"

Twins Arnold and Alden Nunn grew up in a large farming family in Surry County that included eight other siblings, and parents who loved music. At home, their mother played guitar and sang, and their father, Olin Nunn, played fiddle for local dances and events. “He played with a lot of musicians around here,” Arnold recalls. “We were around it all our lives, and next thing you knew, dad stuck a fiddle under our chins.” By the time they were eight years old, both boys were learning to play some fiddle and chords on the piano to back each other up. Alden remembers, “I was so little, my dad would prop me against the wall so I would not topple over and break the fiddle.”
The brothers first performed together at school when they were in fifth grade. They continued playing through school at talent shows and pep rallies. At age fourteen, they started attending and playing at area fiddlers’ conventions. “Seemed like we won the crowd everywhere we played,” Arnold says. When they were sixteen years old, they formed the Nunn Brothers band, and they have now been playing for about thirty years.
